Posted June 19, 2008 I expect to be able to launch the boat code on Monday. Passenger placement in the boats are not perfect and there is no good way to know which way the wind is blowing yet though but unless I can fix those things before the update they'll be done by wednesday. Some tweaking of wind and speed parameters will probably be necessary anyways. Tomorrow is the day off for most Swedes since we celebrate midsummer here frantically. I wish you all a nice weekend!

Posted June 19, 2008 Is there still a plan to make swimming harder or was that rumor and speculation? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 19, 2008 Is there still a plan to make swimming harder or was that rumor and speculation? Yeah, I thought, or heard rumors, of creatures being added to water so you can't even swim anywhere without being attacked. Don't know if that's true though.

Posted June 19, 2008 That was a mere suggestion on the forums, Danny.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 20, 2008 Is there still a plan to make swimming harder or was that rumor and speculation? afaik, no change is planned for swimming for at least a month after boats have been added. The change that was talked about, was to introduce a swimming skill, and make stamina fall quicker (when swimming), maybe drowning when you run out of stamina, but i'm not sure if it will happen.

Posted June 20, 2008 maybe drowning when you run out of stamina, but i'm not sure if it will happen. Drowning would be a bit too hard on players, really slow stamina regain is enough to encourage the use of boats. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
